Abstract: A system is provided for determining a volume of material milled, or a surface area milled, by a construction machine having a milling drum. The volume of material milled is determined as a function of a cross-sectional area of material to be milled in front of the milling drum and a distance traveled by the construction machine while actively milling. The cross-sectional area is determined in part by direct machine observation of one or more profile characteristics of a ground surface in front of the milling drum. The surface area milled is determined as a function of the width of the area to be milled in front of the milling drum and a distance traveled by the construction machine while actively milling.

Abstract: The invention relates to a working device for a ground-processing device having a milling drum with a milling drum tube on whose surface working tools are mounted in a projecting manner and are intended to come into contact with the material to be milled during the milling process, wherein the working device has a powertrain for driving the milling drum. In order to improve the running smoothness of a ground-processing machine, provision is made according to the invention for at least one load weight to be arranged, preferably interchangeably, on the powertrain and/or on the milling drum to increase the kinetic energy.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a machine (100) for surface mining or road milling. The machine (100) is arranged to remove material from a ground region (102) while moving along the ground region (102) and comprises a ground engager for removing a portion of the material from the ground region (102). The machine (100) further comprises a detecting system (110) that has at least one detector element coupled to a component of the machine (100) to move with the machine (100) and arranged to detect at least one quantity associated with an electrical property of the ground region (102). The detecting system (110) is arranged to provide composition information concerning a composition of at least one material layer in the ground region (102) and thickness information concerning a thickness of at least one material layer (102a,b,c,d). The detected at least one quantity associated with the electrical property is used to provide at least one of the composition information and the thickness information.

Abstract: In a method for recognizing a graphical item of mailing data on mailed items which are to be mechanically sorted, an image of a mailed item is recorded and encoded using gray values. The recorded image is digitized in binary form in accordance with a variable threshold characteristic curve, so that at least one item of mailing data is recognized for sorting the mailed item. In the event of incomplete recognition of the item of mailing data, the recorded image is digitized using a reset threshold characteristic curve. After a predefined number of incomplete recognitions, manual sorting is initiated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for reading the addresses of mailings with an OCR device and a video coding device. On an ambiguous reading result from the OCR device an extract is automatically generated with specified extraction rules from address alternatives as a partial result of the OCR process and the number of concurrent or non-concurrent extracts determined. When the number of the address alternatives does not exceed a maximum value, an extraction coding with the specified extraction rules is carried out with predominantly or only different extracts and a selection coding, for the address alternatives transmitted to the video coding device with the image, is carried out with predominantly or only the same extracts.
